Abstract
This study investigated the use of postmortem computed tomography (pmCT) in a homicide victim with three gunshots. This case report illustrates that pmCT enhances the forensic investigation and facilitates dissection of complex regions like the neck and may aid in the determination of a possible chronology of successive shooting. Postmortem imaging should be included as an established standard protocol in any state-of-the-art gunshot injury examination in forensic pathology, as this imaging method may provide more information than autopsy alone.
